I guess it just can't be helped to draw impulsive conclusions of people based on looks. It's the first thing we see. It just depends on how adamantly we stick to them. Humans probably are superficial in nature.
Maybe that's the reason why the internet has made it relatively easy for people to form relationships. Since you meet someone "as is". Of course you can put on any mask you want online, but I'm rather tempted to say that most people drop their masks rather. When they can hide among the anonymity of the internet they can allow themselves to be truly who they feel they are.
